CALCULATIONS. 



i. Woolen Yarn Counts. 

The common method of counting woolen yarns is by the 
run system, which is based on the number of runs of 1600 yards 
each in one pound, or the number of times that 100 yards are 
contained in one ounce. 

Thus, a 5 run yarn means that 5 X 1600=8,000 yards are 
contained in one pound. 

2. TO OBTAIN THE WEIGHT OF A GIVEN LENGTH OF YARN 

when the "run" is known. 

Rule— Multiply the size of yarn given in " run " counts by 100, 
and divide the product into the given number of yards ; this gives the 
weight of the yarn in ounces. 

3. Example. 

a. What is the weight of 8800 yards of 5^-run in ounces ? 

5.5 x 100= 550 

8800 -j- 550 = 16 ozs., or 1 lb. Ans. 

b. What is the weight of 5250 yards of 3-run yarn ? 

3 X 100 = 300 

5250 -f- 300 = 17$ ozs. Ans. 

4. To find the " run " count when the weight and 
length are known. 

Rule- -Divide the given length in yards by the weight in ounces 
and by 100 or divide the given length by the weight in pounds and by 

1600. 

5. Example. 

a. 4000 yards of woolen yarn weigh 5 ozs. ; what "run " is it ? 
4000 

= 8-run. Ans. 

5 X 100 
Proof. 8 X 1600 yards (standard number) = 12,800 yards 



per pound. 



12,800 -i- 16 = 800 yards per ounce. 
800 X 5= 4000 yards in 5 ounces. 



4 CALCULATIONS, 

b. 200,000 yards of "run" yarn weigh 15 lbs. ; what "run" 

is it ? 

200,000 

= 8.33 run. Ans. 

1 15 X 1600 

6. To find the length of yarn when the weight and 
run are given. 

Rule— flultiply the weight in pounds by the run count, and by 
the standard length, 1600 yards ; or multiply the weight in ounces 
by the run count and by 100. 

Example. 

a. What is the length of 350 lbs. of 2-run woolen yarn ? 

350 X 2 X 1600 1,120,000 yards. Ans. 

b. How many yards are there in 10 ozs. of 3-run yarn ? 

10 X 3 X 100 = 3000 yards. Ans. 

7. In Philadelphia and vicinity the numbers of woolen yarn 
are based on the cut system. 

This system is, that for number 1 cut yarn, 300 yds.= 1 lb. 

The rules and examples given under the explanation of the 
"run" system apply to the "cut" system, excepting that one 
system is based on 1600 yards in one pound and the other 300 
yards in one pound. 

8. Fine Linen and Jute yarns are based on the above 
cut system, but instead of the word cut, the word Lea is used. 
The calculations regarding the woolen cut system apply. 

9. Coarse Linen and Jute are reckoned by the weight 
of a spindle, or 14,400 yards ; thus, if 14,400 yards weigh 4 lbs., it 
is 4-lb. counts. 

By this system the heavier the yarn is, the higher the 
counts. This differs from almost all other systems of yarn num- 
bering. Usually a higher number means a finer yarn. 

10. Numbering Worsted Yarns. The system of num- 
bering worsted yarn has previously been referred to in Clause 
1 16, Part III, and is based on the system of reckoning 560 yards 
of number one yarn in one pound. Number two yarn would there- 
fore have 560 X 2, or 1 120 yards in one pound. 560 yards make 
one hank. 



PART IV. 5 

11. The calculations that have been given for cotton yarns 
are applicable to worsted yarns, always remembering that the 
worsted hank has 560 yards, while the cotton has 840 yards. 

12. Worsted yarns for warp are almost always two-ply, that 
is two-fold; thus, 2-ply 24s, 2-ply 50s, etc., meaning that 12 
and 25 times 560 yards of the ply yarn respectively weigh one 
pound. 

13. Silk Yarn Numbering. 

Spun Silks. (Also see Clause 115, Part III.) These are 
calculated on the same basis as cotton : 840 yards to the hank. 
The number of hanks in one pound indicates the counts. 

14. There is a material difference however in ply or folded 
yarns made from silk and cotton. Cotton yarns are marked 
2 ply 20s or 2-ply 40s, etc., as they may be required, which means 
that they are equal to single 10s or single 20s respectively. In 
silk the count of the yarn is indicated by the size of the resultant 
or folded numbers, writing after this the numbers of threads that 
the ply yarn contains. If the numbers are written 20s 2 fold, as 
the numbers of silk are indicated, it means that the yarn is 
equal to single 20s after folding, and not 10s as would be meant 
by the same number in cotton. 

30s 3 fold in silk means 3 threads of 90s. 
3-ply 30s in cotton means 3 threads of 30s. 

15. Cotton, woolen, worsted, fine linen and spun silks are 
all based on the system of numbering finer yarns by higher 
numbers. 

16. Raw Silks. These are calculated on an entirely dif- 
ferent basis from spun silks. 

Here the higher the counts or numbers, the coarser the 
yarn. 

The American custom of specifying the size of silk yarns is 
by giving the weight of 1000 yards in drams avoirdupois. Thus 
if 1000 yards weighed 6 drams, it would be known as 6-dram 
silk. 

If the yarn is weighed in smaller quantities than 1000 yards 
then take the weight in proportion ; thus, if the skein is 250 yards 
\ong and weighs 5 drams, the silk would be 20 dram silk. 



O CALCULATIONS. 

17. Previously to being dyed, sflk yarns are subjected to 
what is called "boiling off," to take out the gum or saliva which 
the silk worm spins into the single thread. 

In this process the yarns lose from 20 to 30 %, according to 
the class of raw silk used ; China silks lose the most, European 
and Japan silks the least. 

The sizes of yarns are always given for their "gum" weight ; 
that is, in their condition before boiling off and dyeing. 

18. Continental European Numbering of Shappe or 
Spun Silk. In Switzerland and France Chappe or Shappe 
silk is reeled in lengths of 500 metres. One skein, of five parts 
each, of 100 threads, of 1 m.= 5oo m. The counts indicate the 
number of skeins of 500 m. each, that go to one-half kilogramme. 
In England, Shappe silk is reeled like cotton. One hank 
seven skeins of 80 threads, of 1^ yards each =840 yards. The 
number or counts gives the number of hanks in one pound. 

19- By multiplying the English number by 1.69 the French, 
Swiss or metric number or count is obtained ; the reverse being 
effected by multiplying the latter by 0.59. 

20. The system of numbering silk which is in vogue in 
Europe, and which is used by a number of mills in America, is 
as follows: 

1 skein of 500 meters, weighing .05 grams = 1 denier inter- 
national ; 

or 1 skein of 476 meters, weighing .053 grams = 1 denier 
Turin system ; 

or 1 skein of 476 meters, weighing .051 grams = 1 denier 
Milan system. 

21. Continental European Numbering of Cotton 
Yarns. 

22. French Weights and Measures of Cotton Yarns. 
The French system of numbering is based on the metric system. 
The metre (39.37 inches) and the kilogramme (2.204 lbs.) being 
their standards of length and weight. 

23. In numbering yarn, a thread of cotton yarn 1000 
metres long, weighing 500 grammes (£ kilo.) is called No. 1. 

No. 2 = 2000 metres, weighing 500 grammes. 



PART IV. 



No. 3 = 3000 metres, weighing 500 grammes. 

No. 4 == 4000 metres, weighing 500 grammes, 
And so on. This length of 1000 metres is termed a hank (or 
echeveau) and each hank is divided into 10 skeins (£chevettes) of 
100 metres each. These skeins are wrapped on a reel having a 
circumference of 1.425 metres (56.10 inches), making seventy 
revolutions to a skein. 

24. The number of hanks in 500 grammes is the count of 
cotton yarn. 

Rule.— Divide the metres reeled by twice the weight in grammes 
= counts French. 

25. Examples for Practice. 

a. A woolen skein of one pound weight contains 18,000 
yards. What is the count in both run and cut systems ? 

b. What is the weight of 37,000 yards of yarn in is worsted 
and is cotton counts ? 

c What is the weight of 10,000 yards of woolen yarn, 
"run" and "cut " systems, 4s counts? 

d. 24 worsted hanks weigh one pound and are 24s counts. 
What is the number of hanks in cotton for the same length of 
yarn ? 

e. How many yards of single yarn are there in a pound of 
2 ply 20s cotton ? 

f. How many yards of single yarn would be required for a 
pound of 20s 2 fold silk ? 

g. If 200 yards of raw silk weigh 6 drams, what numbers 
will it be in the American system ? 

h. A hank of raw silk weighs 6f drams ( A. S.) How many 
yards does it contain ? 

26. Equivalent Counts. To find the equivalent count of 
one system to that of another system. 

Rule.— Multiply the given counts by the number of yards in the 
standard length of the specified system, and divide by the number 
of yards in the standard length of the system required. 

27. Example. 

a. FTnd the equivalent of 15s cotton in woolen and worsted 
counts.

PART IV. 9 

j. Convert number 7 wool " run " to wool "cut " counts. 

29. To Find the Numbers of Yarns without Calcu- 
lations. 

The counts of yarn in many materials can be found by 
counting the number of threads or picks each of a certain length, 
which collectively weigh one grain. For cotton this length is 4 T 5 F 
inches, worsted 2\ inches, and spun silk 4 T 5 F inches. 

30. Example. 

If a small piece of cloth contains 40 picks, each 4^% inches 
long of spun silk, and 30 ends of warp each 2\ inches long of 
worsted, the warp would be 30s worsted and the filling 40s silk. 

31. Finding Weight of Yarn. 

To find the weight in pounds of a given number of yards of 
yarn of a known count in any system. 

Rule.— Divide the given number of yards by the count of the

37. Finding Length of Yarn. 

To find the length of yarn when the weight and counts are 
given. 

Rule.— Multiply the weight in pounds by the counts, and by 
the standard number of yards for the given material. 

38. Examples. 

a. Find the length of 20 pounds of 20s cotton. 

20 X 20 x 840 = 336,000 yards cotton. Ans. 

b. Find length of 20 pounds of worsted 2 ply 20s.

of 2-ply 28s worsted ? 

b. How many yards are there of the ply yarn, ignoring 
contraction in twisting ? 

c. How many yards of single yarn are there in 10 pounds 
of 2-ply 60s cotton ? 

d. Find the length of yarn in 10 pounds of 40s 2 fold silk. 

40. Ply, or Double and Twist Yarns. 

What has been said in clauses 103 to 113, Part III, Calcula- 
tions, in regard to cotton yarn will also apply to woolen, 
worsted and linen yarns, that is with regard to the sizes of yarns 
twisted together, or to be twisted together. 

42. If the yarns that are used are of different materials and 
based upon different systems of counting it will to necessary to 
first bring them to one denomination. 

43. Example. 

A yarn is composed of one thread of 15s worsted and one 
thread of 10s cotton ; what are the resultant counts in worsted ? 

10 X 840 

= 1 5 worsted. 

560 

10s cotton equals 15s worsted. 
Then 

= — = 7.5 s worsted. Ans. 

15 + 15 2 



12 calculations, 

44. Three-Ply Yarns. 

It is very seldom that three or more yarns are used in the 
same thread, especially different counts of the single threads, but 
if it is required to make such a combination and calculate 
the counts, then reduce all to one denomination and proceed as 
shown in clause in and 112 of Part III, Calculations. 

45. Examples for Practice. 

a. A yarn is composed of one thread of 10s cotton and 26 
cut woolen. What are the counts in "cut" numbers ? 

b. What would be the resulting count of one end of 40s 
cotton, one of 40s worsted, and one of 60s spun silk twisted 
together ? 

c. What are the counts of 36s cotton twisted with 48s 
worsted ? Give the answers in both cotton and worsted systems. 

46. Price of Twisted Yarns. 

To find the price of two ply yarns, sometimes called double 
and twist yarns, when the threads to be twisted together are of 
different values and different counts. 

Rule.— flultiply the highest counts by the price of the lowest 
counts and the lowest counts by the price of the highest, and 
divide the sum of the products by the sum of the counts. 

Example. 

A 32s yarn costs 42 cents per pound and a 16s yarn costs 
18 cents per pound; find the cost of the two twisted together. 

32 X 18 = 576 
16 x 42 =672 



48 1248 

Therefore, 1248-^48=26 cents per pound as the cost of 
the twisted yarn. Ans. 

47. If the threads or yarns are of different materials and 
the counts reckoned on a different basis, then reduce them both 
to the same denomination and proceed as in the previous exam- 
ple. 

48. If three or more threads are twisted together, first find 
the value of any two, and then the value of the thread resulting 
from those two with the third. 




PART IV. 13 

49. Examples for Practice. 

a. What is the price of a twist yarn composed of one thread 
of 22s yarn at 40 cents per pound, and a 40s yarn at 84 cents per 
pound ? 

b. What is the price per pound of a twist thread composed 
of one thread of 40s worsted at 96 cents per pound, and one 
thread of 80s 2 fold silk at $5.28 per pound ? 

c. What would be the size or count of the above twist 
thread in worsted counts ? 

50. Finding Weight of Single Yarns to Produce 
Ply Yarns. 

When twisting together two threads of different counts, to 
find the weight of each required to produce a given weight. 

Rule —Find the counts resulting from the two threads, then, 
as the counts of one thread is to the resulting counts, so is the 
total weight to the weight required of that thread. 

51. Example. 

What weight of 80s cotton should be twisted with a 32s 
cotton to produce 100 pounds of double and twist ? 

80 X 32 

= 22.857 resulting count. 

80 + 32 
Then, as 80 : 22.857 : :"iob : 28.572 of 80s yarn. Ans. 

52. Another rule.— As the sum of the two or more counts is 
to one of the counts, so is the total weight to the weight of the 
other count. 

Take the previous example by this method. 
80 



1 12 : 80 :: 100 : 71.428 of 32s. Or, 
112 : 32 :: 100 : 28.572 of 80s. Ans. 
If the price of each yarn was given and it was required to 
find the price per pound of the resulting counts, then multiply 
the weight of each kind of yarn by its price, add them together 
and divide by the total weight. 
53. Example. 

a. Supposing the 80s yarn in the previous example was 
worth 72 cents per pound and the 32s worth 48 cents per pound,
